Description
This is a wrongful death action arising out of a traffic accident in which Nathaniel and Hazel Dawson, husband and wife, were killed when the pickup truck driven by Hazel Dawson was struck by an automobile driven by the defendant Ronald T. Olson, an uninsured motorist. The accident occurred on January 12, 1968. On September 17, 1968, the plaintiffs, the children of Nathaniel Dawson, brought a wrongful death action against Olson. The Dawsons automobile insurer, State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company, petitioned to intervene on the ground that because the Dawsons policy contained an uninsured motorist provision, the insurance company had a vital interest in the outcome of this case. The petition to intervene was granted. The case was tried beginning October 5, 1970, and the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs for $75,000. Olson and State Farm both moved for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict or a new trial. On November 27, 1970, the trial court entered judgment notwithstanding the verdict for both the defendant and the intervenor. From this entry of judgment the plaintiffs appealed.
